a senior consultant

Retention offer

Hello, Current offer from CG - Total 21.5L, fixed as 19.4 and rest bonus Retention offer from Deloitte - Total 19.1, fixed as 15.5 and rest bonus (4L) I understand the offer is less but my manager explained that Deloitte's hikes are better in the market and on an average, I can get 15% every year with good performance. The same hikes in CG are around 5-6% so financially, my salary growth will definitely be more in Deloitte. Please give me suggestions. I have good management and projects in Deloitte with WLB but I would like to have some perspective on offered CTC too

Openness until Marvell technologies took over.

Dislikes

With Marvell taking over Cavium Networks, the culture has changed drastically. Cavium had a great environment and had humanity. Do not join if you want job security (complete job security is a myth, i mean more security than Marvell.), they can fire at the drop of a hat because they are so bent on only profits. The human factor is missing. You will not even be conveyed why you got fired in the first place, the hr will just ask you to clear out in 48 hours, period. Sevarance packages are quite decent though. I am not judging their policy of firing, they are firing most probably to keep themsrlves profitable and thats how they prefer to run the show. But it wreaks havoc on the employees mind. Join at your own peril or seek some place which are a bit more human.
